It engulfed my tank so much I had to put in silver dollars to eat them.
And I didn't even use plant fertilizer!!
Anyways, do you have any south american cichlids there at all? South Americans have more rich dark colors, while African Cichlids have more solid like colors that look like pastel-like colors  Both of them are neat to look at, but I definitely would go for South Americans
They aren't as aggressive and they usually don't tear up all of your plants like Africans where they just uproot the plants and they usually attack at the roots. So they are similar to Silver Dollars xD
Anyways. I hope you can put up more videos on the forum here  I will soon of course!
Btw, do you use a SUPER long siphon to do a gravel wash?

Well all of the fish have just about doubled in size since I bought them, so i wanted to see how full it was once they were all fully grown. Also, I get bored of something once I fill it and no longer can go out on the weekends and buy new fish, so I left room to grow.
As far as live plants, the only thing we have here in town is the two kinds I have-- anubis and the other one (forgot). I haven't had the guts to buy online yet.
Don't know what I think of sand and live plants...once they all get rooted, how in the world would you clean the sand and churn it every once in awhile?
Yes, I have the biggest gravel wash they supply at petsmart. Works great.
